Hey everyone,

I just finished a bikepacking trip from Denmark to Italy 🚴‍♂️ — 25 days on the road. Now I’d like to make an Instagram story with the whole route in one map/animation, instead of having 25 separate tracks.

I have all the GPX files from each day, but I’m not sure how to merge them into a single continuous file. Ideally, I’d like to create one nice line that shows my entire journey across Europe.

What’s the best tool or method for this? GPS Visualizer, Komoot, something else? Bonus points if it can also generate a cool video or animation of the route.

Thanks a lot!

  1. You should be able to convert it into something you could add up manually in an excel sheet and then convert it to any file format you need.

    Python is your friend.

    There‘s a lot of code out there which might even do exactly what you want to achieve.

    -> python, -> github

    Worst case you just open the .gpx files in text editor and copy paste the trkseg info manually into a single file. Use the first gpx file as the template and paste the trksegs from the other gpx files into it.
